This blog will be where I share my thoughts and research on Democratic candidates in Virginia and also on their opposition. Having seen some of these candidates in action, I'm looking for a few honest candidates. I pledge to point out the inconsistencies, outright mistruths and glaring omissions in the information I find while doing research--whether those are local candidates, candidates for Congressional offices, Democrats or Republicans.

An email to the Times-Dispatch

To: news@timesdispatch.com

Gee, thanks for printing my comment to the article containing Peter Hardin’s distortion of the quote made by Virgil Goode at yesterday’s immigration news conference in which he changed the wording to reflect better on Mr. Goode. Your failure to print my opinion makes me believe what I heard others say just tonight at a 5th District Democratic Committee dinner—that the paper is really known as the “Richmond Times-Disgrace.”

I have posted your reprehensible performance on my blog and will be seeking other outlets for it as well.

About Me

A divorced mother of two, I have lived in the Southside Virginia area for 22 years. I have taught (agriculture, horticulture, special education, and computer literacy) at all levels in the public school system and for the Virginia community college system as well. I am president of my local education association, treasurer of an investment club, and a member of my local Democratic committee. I find myself becoming more active in politics all the time. This is mostly because I am tired of people in the public eye who are not honest with their constituents--on all levels of government (including, at times, the public school system). The Internet has leveled the playing field for all citizens by bringing information and research to the computer desktop. Use it to find out more about your candidates, government officials, and their positions on the issues that matter to you--and then use that information to make a difference.
